  • Yeah. When the girls outside my supermarket give me the cookie pitch I can honestly say I don't have enough cash. LOL. Seriously, it's a good thing because I just pig out on them anyway.

  • lol i think it's both! $3.50 for a box of GS cookies is crazy! plus when you open it and the packaging reveals almost nothing? heart breaking! Apparently Samoas (those caramel coconut ones) are like $.25 each! the shortbread ones are the best deal at about $.05 each ;) (my cousin is a GS and did a school project on the history of GS Cookies).

    that said - the economy scares me and i totally have my head in the sand about it *sigh*
